Isn't this a 68000CPU based game?

If that is the case then read the 68000 pod manual on reading ROMs. You 
will need to translate the signature that the Fluke generates as it 
isn't the same as the checksum by any means.

There is a a lot of info here:

http://tech.quarterarcade.com/tech/Fluke/9010A/

I recommend you download and read up on the FIDE program as well as the 
other sections including the algorithym generator - this will enable you 
to generate Fluke algorithyms from file images so you can verify if the 
on board ROM is being read correctly (assuming the ROM is valid, and 
addressed properly with no stuck address or data lines.
